I assume this is a 500 cfm carb and if it is we run 136-138 jets for a 2348 CC engine. It was a rocket off the corner. Robert
yes a 4412
wjat intake would u run esslinger or efi
Depends on what metering block you have. Does the metering block accept the large Alky jets? If so, 140's is in the ballpark.If it has the hole above the jets *which I don't like* then depending on the hole size probably 84's or so.
Is there any thing more you got to do to the motor to run alky? And do you notice a performace dif?
No. Run it and you won't want to go back to gas. Substantial difference.Quote:

what squirter did u run and accel pump on your methanal carb
need help what fuel pressure regulater do u run i am running no return line
help anyone or does anyone know were i can get it
Regular ole holley regulator will work. Use the holley needle and seat brand only and around 6.5 on the fuel pressure. The holley brand needle and seat will hold more pressure before over running the float. Get everything warm and set the idle. The idle will tend to rise after a heat race because heat makes the engine more efficient with alky making it have a leaner idle when warm and idling up.
so i dont have to run a return
no return needed as long as your not over 8 psi...alk. motors tend to like more timing also..
I am running at 8psiQuote:

it has .130 needle and seat and the float level is in consistant
8 psi is to high keep it around 6.5 psi. Sounds like your having a pull over issue coming off of the corner.
What fuel pump are you guys using with methanol?
